Character: Marneus Calgar Junior
Height: 4cm
Weapons: twin power fists
Age: 6 months
Info: made before Finecast, Happy to be made.

What, he's 12mm taller than a standard Space Marine?

I don't measure models.

40k models are made at the 28mm scale. No measuring needed.. it's just common sense if you consider 28mm (2.8cm) as an average human in 40k (around 6ft, leaning towards the taller side). However, in reality, Calgar (without scenic base) is only about 30mm or so.. ergo everyone should be able to work out their characters' actual height.

Everyone following? Good.

ultramarinecout: you are in Mark's bedroom on his small painting desk and your troops are boxed up aside from a pair of termies that Mark had just painted, there is a snoring sound coming from the massive bed.

ineptus astartes wrote:uh...I said no more 'left behind' models. at this rate I would not even have an army to use!

Err...what does that mean? Does he have to be part of a larger force do you mean? If that's the case, he's second-in-command of the main Cadian force. He used his eye laser to burn a hole in the floor and jumped down to meet the rest of them. Or maybe just wanted to show them Grey's Anatomy...

Might join as a Sister of Battle..... Let me think.

To be honest, Mark is 19. There is no way he can afford the insane number of models here. I highly advise you, ineptus, to rule that everyone has significantly less models than they have posted. Not everyone.. just the stupidly numerous forces.. we have to think about actual army sizes here people! Lets say.. 2000, 2500 points perhaps for everyone? GMs consent required, of course.

So should I be part of Dark's forces or something? I'm not too sure on how this whole thing works.

what I mean troll, is that I am saying no more models that have not been fielded for years.


feel free to join Silly.

Draigo is the big cheese, therefore he is in command of all your measely Guardsmen. Savvy?

He could be the son of Matt Ward.

(hmmm well dark has a point...so lets say medium apocalypse for each amy and the orks ludicrous numbers is a result of the spores) (opr we could say they started off in the dark millenium but ended up here during a massive battle)

or the half models could be given to him by a friend who released he was playing with plastic toys

or he could be great at gaming and won most of them in tournaments

I reckon whoever controls the stairs wins.

Yarrik's Forces


EDIT: Actually, make that 5 veteran squads, 3 melta squads and 2 plasma, all in chimeras. 3 Sentinel squadrons with autocannons, 3 hellhounds and 5 LRBTs. Three Infantry platoons each with 50 guardsmen and 3 HWS, 1 with Mortars, one with Missile Launchers, one with HBs +lots of flamers and commissars. Add 9 Basilisks, a Manticore, 3 Demolishers, two Punishers, 0ne Executioner and a Deathstrike. 3 Valkyries each carrying 10 Stormtroopers with meltas, and a command squad with an Officer of the Fleet who can call in Thunderbolts from the attic and a Master of Ordinance who can call in more artillery from the attic. Anyone who takes the attic gains access to these assets. Ok?

Some Chinese guy on the corner said "Here take these models for free"
Mark, "They won't come to life or anything right,"
Chinese guy "... No of course not...Goodbye" then disappeared in a puff of smoke

Alright, here's my attempt at an army list...

Major Kern and his men are part of the 145th Krieg Heavy Siege Regiment, and are the third battalion in that regiment...

That being said: 200 regular troops (with assorted support weapons) 100 Grenadiers (also with assorted weapons) 3 SPG type basilisks, 3 quad thudd guns, 3 heavy mortars, a team of 15 engineers, a techpriest, 8 man command squad including commissar and standard bearer

4 Leman Russ variants, 1 Stormblade, 6 Chimeras, 3 centaurs, 3 hydras, 1 Hades drill, 1 Macharius heavy tanks, 3 hellhounds...

Dunno if I'm missing anything important or overstepping myself, just let me know wither way...

Seems i'm going to have to reread the sob fluff.... (so i know what i'm talking about.)
